Hey all --
I have a new small ~2,000 gallon fiberglass pool with two variable speed pumps. One pump does the skimmer and returns, while the other just does the waterfalls & bubblers.
Given that the pool has a SWG, what sort of schedule should I have my pump(s) on?
Given that my pool is so small, the plan I had was to set the SWG to 50% and then have the pump be only high speed twice a day for two hours each. It seems like my SWG control panel only registers a "flow" when the main pump is at 1750+ rpm, and thus only generates when above that. I am trying to balance good chlorine generation, good filtration, and not consuming a crazy amount of electricity.
e.g.
Main Pump:
Is this a good plan to min/max my filtration & chlorination w/o consuming too much electricity?

Main Pump:
- 10:00a - 12:00p @ 2200 rpm
- 12:00p - 5:00p @ 800 rpm
- 5:00p - 7:00p @ 2600 rpm
- 7:00p - 10:00a @ 800 rpm
- 5:30p - 6:30p @ 2800 rpm
